Why is it in bad taste to say "easy"? Or ez?

I mean in Japanese anime and video games, whenever a battle is won, one of the more recurring lines is to the characters saying "rakushou rakushou~!" as their victory quote.

I don't see how saying "easy" is such a problem.

because you are going out of your way to mock your opponents and telling them they are bad at this.

It's like you have sex with some one and then after, you tell them "I've had better" it's just not nice.

It is not incoherent to say that "being mean just because you can shouldn't be punished". However, it is also not Riot's policy. Saying "gg ez" is almost exactly equivalent to saying "l2p" or "you suck", and is therefore a reportable offense.

Its because its not nice. There is literally no reason to say in all chat that since you are insulting the enemy team. Say it in normal chat to your own team if you must. There is no excuse to do it in all and you will get banned for it since it is actually a very serious thing they look at.

Its no different than any type of competition or sport. Its one thing to be happy and revel in your victory, its another to mock the person or team that lost. Watch the olympics or some pro sport and see what happens when they once in a while go to far. They get fined pretty hard and get kicked out.

It's like the handshake at the end of a game. All the trash talk goes out and you shake hands.

"Rakushou" means "romp" in English.

You're going to have to try a bit harder than that, OP. In Japan, there is ALWAYS respect. That's how their society is. Us dumb Americans don't respect opposition. We've been taught to dislike the other team and to demoralize them with trash talk and attitude. They don't do that in Japan. Those that do are shunned.
